"NanaBanana?"


BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW TO USE THE BRAKES YET!!!!!!!!!!!!
How cute is this baby??????????? Incredibly cute is obviously the right answer. How could he being any cuter????????????? Well, living in Md. might help, but we'll make do. I think my daughter needs her head examined. She has decided Logan should call me "Nanabanana". What is WRONG with that child?????? A graduate of USNA and U of Md. and all she can come up with is Nanabanana????????? Big sigh. Good thing they are both cute.

total frustration...

Working in an elementary school, we spend a HUGE amount of time going over "basics" with the kids. Don't lie. Don't cheat. Don't point fingers. Keep your hands off other people. Don't tattle. Don't whine. Help your classmates. It's difficult, but these are lessons everyone needs to learn. Or at least I used to think everyone needed to know these skills. BUT WHY??? If they don't learn them, they can always be a government official!!!! Like a congressman, or senator, or gov. or....gosh...who knows how high they could go? There is no limit. Lying, cheating, finger pointing, tattling, being two faced, whining...why these things are in HIGH demand if you are an elected official. Personally, I am totally, absolutely, completely 100% sick of our elected officials acting worse than 3rd graders. AND....doing all of this in full view of the entire world. It is worse than an embarrassment.
